My first Debbie Young book but definitely not my last. This was a good cozy mystery. Lots of colorful characters kept me reading way past my bedtime. This was a great book to get lost in.
Thank you NetGalley, Debbie Young and Boldwood Books for the opportunity to read and review this book

Another fun installment in the series following Alice and a collection of wonderful side characters discover and solve a murder. While this one is quite short it’s entertaining and had a few plot twists that were unexpected. The full explanation of the murder itself was a bit lacking, the reveal of what crime had been committed, by who, and why was decent. One more scene describing the altercation between the murderer and their victim would have added important context and concluded the story perfectly.

This book was such fun to read, I enjoyed every minute of it.
Alice is preparing for the holidays as well as having her mum to visit and to help with her curiosity shop.
When two random shoppers in her store raise suspicion, Alice soon finds herself involved in a possible murder investigation.
I liked the fast pace of the book, it kept me guessing until the end.
I'm looking forward to reading more in this series.

This was such a good book. I loved the story and the writing so much. The characters were great and the story flowed smoothly. Will definitely read more books by this author in the future
